Towards Network-Based Education: A Multidimensional Model for Principles of Planning and Evaluation

This article presents a conceptual multidimensional model intended for designing principles for planning and evaluating network-based education (NBE) as well as teaching materials used in NBE. The model is based on an integrative approach to the teaching‐studying‐learning paradigm, which we call network-based education. NBE is seen as a comprehensive developmental trend that combines traditional in-class education and different modes of utilising network-based materials, courses and information. It makes full use of telematic and network-based materials without excluding any printed or electronic materials. The multidimensional model is grounded on the background flows of communication (viestinta) and mediation (valitteisyys), which are then connected to some key constructs of media education. The construction of the present conceptual model is part of the TriO 1 Project of the Media Education Centre, developed in co-operation with the National Board of Education in 1999‐2000.
